As one of the top brokerage firms in Chicago, the CONLON team never forgets that buying or selling a home is quintessentially one of the most important life decisions someone will make both personally and financially. In 2012, CONLON, along with commercial real estate veteran Steve Horvath, launched CONLON Commercial which focuses on servicing clients’ commercial real estate needs in development, industrial, office and retail. We continue to be one of Chicago’s fastest growing brokerages through our recent, exclusive affiliation with Christie’s International Real Estate (CIRE) which brings an unprecedented global reach for a Chicago brokerage along with a unique ability to service Chicago’s luxury residential market.

Based on the most recent data, CONLON directly corresponds its marketing focus by investing nearly 75% of our marketing dollars in internet marketing to ensure the broadest market exposure for your property. Furthermore, by spending over 25% on traditional marketing, we cover all the bases where buyers are looking.

Recent data shows that eight in ten buyers searched online when looking for a home. For 44% of those homebuyers, searching the internet was their initial step in the home searching process.

By listing your home with the area’s multiple listing service (MLS), we are able to share extensive information about your

home with other brokers and online portals. Combined with our partnership of the nation’s leading online real estate marketing network, we have the potential to syndicate listings and reach homebuyers on hundreds of websites. Included websites where your listing will be found are the three largest real estate search engines: Trulia.com, Zillow.com and Realtor.com. Second to the MLS, these three powerful real estate portals make up majority of online home searches. For this reason, CONLON invests additional marketing money to enhance and upgrade our listings on these sites.

PERSONAL SIGNAGE & MARKETING Personal signage and marketing is an essential part of our sales strategy. Upon signing with CONLON, we will immediately put in place a CONLON luxury for sale sign at the property. At the same time, we will begin planning open houses and broker’s opens to draw interest from homebuyers and/or the agents searching on their behalf. We will work closely with you and keep you informed of weekly feedback. Information from homebuyers and their agents helps us focus on what potential buyers are looking for and gives us the ability, if needed, to adjust our plan of action in marketing your home.
